BOTH

tells EDIT command to find the lines in the EDIT file that contain
both uppercase and lowercase occurrences of the character string
string If you omit BOTH, EDIT only finds the occurrences of string
that exactly match what you type.

WORD

tells EDIT command to find the lines in the EDIT file in which the
character string string is a word. A word is defined as (1) any
character string that is preceded and followed by a space or any
character other than a number or letter or (2) a character string that
occurs at the end of a line. If you omit WORD, EDIT finds all
occurrences of string.

PADDED

tells EDIT to treat the line as though it contains all blanks from the
last nonblank column through column 239.

string

is a character string to search for in your EDIT file. The quotes (”)
separate string from the rest of the command. You can also enclose
string within a pair of single apostrophes (’) or right slants (/). You
must, however, use the same separator at the beginning and end of
the string.

COL column-range-list

is the keyword COL followed by a column-range-list, indicating
that EDIT should search for string in one or more specified
columns. (See the Column-Range-List description, following.)
